Write in recollection and amazement for yourself.
Jack Kerouac
Don't write what you know, write anything you can imagine.
Tom Robbins
All good writing is built one good line at a time.
Kate Braverman
Thoughts from a Queen-sized bed
I want to return to that place
You received a letter
It's what was left behind
Things to do on a Tuesday
Write what you try to forget
Write about a time you changed your mind
Once, with another woman …
Something stolen
While you were driving
These were my mistakes
In my grandmother's house
I'm thinking of …
Write about a summer fling
You are lost
What you see in the distance
You thought nobody noticed
This is what you need for the journey
Write about sleeping
<
How to get started writing? Write.
Write about the best of intentions
Write about a time you wanted to leave but couldn't
You're waiting...
Write about taking risks
There is a memory of a ____________
Write about a bed
The last we heard
You got it second hand
Write about receiving messages<
Write one true thing
This is a prayer
